UK Fintech Unicorn Epos Now Secures £90m to Accelerate Worldwide Growth
Epos Now, the UK-born fintech unicorn serving over 100,000 merchants worldwide, has secured a £90m funding package from HSBC UK, a major vote of confidence in the company's global ambitions and its standing as one of Britain's most valuable and fastest-growing privately held tech businesses.
The announcement builds on Epos Now's invitation in late 2024 to join the UK's Unicorn Council, an exclusive group recognising privately held businesses valued at over £1 billion, and marks the next major step in the company's international growth story.
The funding comprises a £55 million committed Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) alongside a £35 million accordion facility, providing Epos Now with the financial firepower to move decisively on new market opportunities and accelerate its strategic growth ambitions.
“This refinancing marks an important milestone for Epos Now and gives us the flexibility to accelerate our international growth strategy. With HSBC UK’s support, we are well-positioned to invest further in innovation, expand into new markets and continue delivering affordable, reliable technology solutions to businesses around the world.”
Jacyn Heavens, Founder and CEO at Epos Now
“Achieving unicorn status is a significant milestone, and we’re proud to support Epos Now at this important stage of its growth journey as it accelerates its expansion into new markets.”
James Cundy, Managing Director and Head of Corporate & Leveraged Finance at HSBC UK
With the funding now in place, Epos Now will accelerate its expansion across North America and Europe, deepen investment in its AI-powered business management suite, and continue its mission to give every business, regardless of size or location, access to world-class technology.
